New types of ultrasound systems are suitable for sensors and stun weapons.


Researchers created the first wearable ultrasound system for tissue monitoring. 


That kind of system can deliver more precise data about working tissues while the person is working in real situations than old fashion systems. But those patch-based systems can also make many other things. Similar, easily integrated systems can also act as SONAR-based ranging systems.

 That kind of sonar array can install in the container or furniture, that must move from point A to point B. So when the corner of merchandise will go too close to the wall or corner, that system can lock the wheels of the intelligent wagons. 

And that system can deny damage. Same way adhesive tape-connected sonars can put on a car's buffer, and it can tell the distance to the next car. If those sonars are at corners of the buffer, that thing can help drivers how to park their vehicles.

"A multidisciplinary team led by associate professor Hong Chen at Washington University in St. Louis has developed a novel, noninvasive method to induce a torpor-like state in mammals by targeting the central nervous system with ultrasound. The technique, which involves stimulating the hypothalamus preoptic area in the brain, was shown to effectively reduce body temperature and metabolic rate in mice, leading to a state of torpor, which is a natural mechanism used by some animals to survive extreme conditions.

The next-generation ultrasound weapons might replace old-fashion stun grenades. 


But there is a possibility that these kinds of sonar systems can act as soundwave-based weapons. If those things are connected to a person or vehicle, and somebody comes too close the miniaturized LRAD-based ultrasound can make that person unable to operate. 

The next-generation ultrasound system can make The Pied Piper of Hamel true and that kind of technical equipment can be dangerous in the wrong hands.

Researchers found an ultrasound-based reaction that looks like hibernation in human brains. That kind of thing can use in the next-generation stun bombs. The idea is simple the system can send the ultrasound that activates the hibernation to the target. 

That ultrasound-based system will turn true, there is the possibility that the system uses a high-tech whistle. In that system, the user blows the whistle. The hibernation ultrasound systems can also be input into helicopters or other aerial vehicles. 

There is a small generator that gives electricity to the microchip that is connected to the small loudspeakers. And then that system will send that sound to the target. That kind of system can use in riots but why not also in a real war? 

The soundwave will just put enemies to sleep in critical moments. And at least law enforcement can benefit from that system. It's possible that the loudspeaker sends a hibernation sound into the wristwatch and then releases gang members from prison.

Chinese innovations and space lasers are interesting combinations.

Above: "Tiangong is China's operational space station located in low Earth orbit. (Image credit: Alejomiranda via Getty Images)" (Scpace.com, China's space station, Tiangong: A complete guide) Chinese are close to making nuclear-powered spacecraft.  Almost every day, we can read about Chinese technical advances. So are, the Chinese more innovative than Western people? Or is there some kind of difference in culture and morale between Western and Chinese societies? The Chinese superiority in hypersonic technology is one of the things that tells something about the Chinese way of making things.  In China, the mission means. And the only thing that means is mission. That means that things like budgets and safety orders are far different from Western standards. If some project serves the Chinese communist party and PLA (People's Liberation Army) that guarantees unlimited resources for those projects. Chinese authorities must not care about the public opinion.  If we th

Iron Dome is one of the most effective air defense systems.

The Iron Dome is a missile defense system whose missiles operate with highly sophisticated and effective artificial intelligence. The power of this missile defense base is in selective fire. The system calculates the incoming missile's trajectory. And it shoots only missiles that will hit the inhabited area. The system saves missiles and focuses defense on areas that mean something. The system shares the incoming missiles in, maybe two groups. Another is harmless and another is harmful.  Things like killer drones are also problematic because their trajectories are harder to calculate than ballistic missiles. The thing that makes drones dangerous is that they can make masks for ballistic missiles. And even if those drones are slow, all of them must be shot down.  The thing is that the cooperation between drone swarms and ballistic missiles is the next danger in conflict areas. In the film, you can see how drones make light images of the skies. The killer drones can also carry LED li

The innovative shield that protects OSIRIS-APEX can also protect the new hypersonic aircraft.

"NASA’s OSIRIS-APEX spacecraft successfully completed its closest solar pass, protected by innovative engineering solutions and showing improvements in onboard instruments. Credit: NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center/CI Lab" (ScitechDaily, Innovative Engineering Shields NASA’s OSIRIS-APEX During Close Encounter With the Sun) The OSIRIS-APEX probe travels close to the sun. The mission plan is to research the sun. And especially find things that can warn about solar storms. Solar storms are things that can danger satellites at the Earth orbiter. And the purpose of OSIRIS-APEX is to find the method of how to predict those solar storms. Another thing is that the OSIRIS-APEX tests the systems and materials that protect this probe against heat and plasma impacts.  The same technology. The researchers created for OSIRIS-APEX can used in the materials and structures. That protects satellites against nuclear explosions. That means this kind of system delivers information on how to prot
